Abstract
A class of general spin 1/2 lattice models on hyper-cubic lattice Zd, whose Hamiltonians are sums of two functions depending on the Pauli matrices S1, S2 and S3, respectively, are found, which have Gibbsian eigen (ground) states and two order parameters for two spin components x, z simultaneously for large values of the parameter α playing the role of the inverse temperature. It is shown that the ferromagnetic order in x direction exists for all dimensions d ≥ 1 for a wide class of considered models (a proof is remarkably simple).

Key words: Gibbsian eigen (ground) states; quantum spin models.
